"Trespass Against Me"

With love broken...

The frayed edges catch in my heart

Memories made

Added together...

Built up upon another

Piled high...

And torn apart...

Thoughts race

You are the words of a poem that I just can't seem to write

So I try...

To move on from what was

Relieving myself from my post

A connection that become a job

A duty held strong

Like a soldier marching...

I carried on

All the while you filled me up with emptiness

A consuming hole growing

Days became unending...

A stranger before me my eyes saw

Boundaries blurred

So many lies by you were lived

Denial became existence...

To the point in time when...

You could no longer remember which ones you had sown

As your everything...

The person you held so close

I began to suffer

Starved from the light

Cast behind in your shadow

Left embraced and holding on by the pieces

Began the footsteps on a path there is no returning

You now trespass so far against me...

I no longer recognize any part of myself

I am no longer in control of me

For you have become more than I can possibly contain

Making this the last moment you take from me

And that I give to you...
